Chapter 307

The fourth master watched Kangxi sit on the dragon chariot, disappeared far away at the intersection, hurriedly returned to the study, looked at Zhang Bao and Chen Fu who showed satisfaction in their eyes, let out a big sigh, patted his chest, and said continuously: "But I'm scared to death!"

Without waiting for Zhang Bao and the others to answer, Kangxi's voice came from outside: "Why are you so confused......"

The 'fourth master' and the others panicked again, but they didn't have time to say a word, so they had to walk out of the study in a hurry.

"Huang Ama!" The fourth master said with a faint smile on his face, and said in a hoarse voice.

"Fourth, let someone help you find this foolish thing of your third brother, he actually dropped the jade pendant that he had been playing with in his hand!" Kangxi Ye smiled and saluted, and said loudly.

Since the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, each heir of the royal family will be sent by the order of the Zongren Mansion at birth, and send a jade pendant with the eight characters of the birthday of the secret carving supervised by the manufacturing office, this jade pendant is their status symbol, although it is not a big deal, but it still has to be well preserved.

This is also the first time in more than 40 years that the prince has lost the jade pendant, a status symbol, since Kangxi ascended the throne.

Chen Fu's slightly cloudy eyes flashed with a dangerous glow, and he turned his back to Kangxi Ye and the others and made a gesture to the two brothers Wang Yicheng who followed behind him.

"Erchen, this is going to organize people to look for it!" The fourth master bowed slightly, turned around and called Zhang Bao to lead the people to look for it along the place where Kangxi Ye and the others walked.

Zhang Bao responded, and withdrew from the courtyard in front of the study, personally leading people to find it. did not ignore the fact that Wang Yicheng and the two brothers walked to the small tearoom behind.

There are slaves to look for things, but Kangxi Ye can't stand in the courtyard all the time and wait, and the fourth master doesn't wait for Chen Fu to give him a look. He had already smiled and let Kangxi Ye and the others sit in the living room next to the study.

The small living room is a bright room with three rooms, and the plaque on the main hall is the inscription of Kangxi Ye - Yuansi Zhaohui.

Before everyone could sit down, the two brothers Wang Yicheng had already led two palace maids with delicate faces to come in to serve tea. The first-class Longjing before the rain was just sent from the south by water a few days ago, and Kangxi Ye just raised his hand slightly and owed the lid of the cup, and the fresh fragrance floated out.

"The taste of this tea is really good, no worse than this year's tribute tea!" Kangxi Ye took a sip slightly. Said with a smile.

Manchu people like strong tea, so this Longjing before the rain is not Kangxi's favorite, but it does not prevent him from commenting.

The fourth master is holding a tea bowl and scraping the tea leaves floating on the water with the lid of the cup. Hearing this, his hands trembled, as if he was frightened by Kangxi's words, and he didn't even have time to clean up the hot tea that was sprinkled on his wrist, and he already knelt on the ground.

"Erchen had previously set up a tea garden in the south. This tea is the origin of the tea plantation. I also sent some to the Internal Affairs Office and the brothers' mansions before, but I don't want Huang Ama to misunderstand!" the fourth master lowered his head and explained softly.

What was the real purpose of Kangxiye's words just now, Zhao Dezhu couldn't figure it out, but the note embedded under the tea bowl was written like this, so his hands under his sleeves had long been shaking, for fear that he would be exposed.

"You just take these rules too seriously!" Kangxi Ye said. The corners of his mouth are slightly hooked, and he said loudly.

Forthwith. He glanced at Wei Zhu beside him, and motioned for him to step forward and help the fourth master.

Just now Kangxi Ye went and returned, he heard the whispers of the two little eunuchs outside Long Yuan, and he had some doubts about the fourth master who had been sick for many days, and the third child happened to lose his identity jade pendant, giving him such a seemingly reasonable excuse.

Don't think that this famous Kangxi Ye has no suspicion, on the contrary, as he gets older, his suspicion is at an advanced stage, and it is really a little bit of wind and grass that can make him imprison his own heirs.

"The son is rude, and I ask the emperor to allow him to go down and clean up!" The fourth master pointed to the dress that was already wet, and said softly.

Kangxi Ye glanced at the redness and swelling on the fourth master's wrist, and hurriedly waved his hand, "Go quickly, don't hurt your body again!"

The fourth master got up, and before he could leave the living room, Zhang Bao had already walked in with a gold-painted vermilion lacquer tray with Sanbeiler's lost jade pendant.

"There are a lot of things going on, you have to take care of your body quickly, and I and your brothers won't stay much!" Kangxi Ye drew a big question mark to Yinzhi in his heart, and before Yinzhi took the jade pendant, he got up with a smile and said goodbye.

Poor Zhao Dezhu had to wear the wet dress, sent Kangxi Ye and others out again, and watched Long Yuan go away again, and returned to the study to sit down.

This time, he didn't dare to speak arrogantly, so he hurriedly asked Zhang Bao to change the dress for him, and wore the fourth master's homely robe and nested in the study for an afternoon, until dinnertime, when he was sure that Kangxi Ye would not come back to look for a sudden attack, he led Zhang Bao and others into the inner courtyard.

In the west courtyard, Erfu waited for a long time, and even heard about Kangxi's return and return, and didn't dare to send Wang Shoucai to the front to wrap up the mess, and was worried that the little maid in the courtyard would go out and talk nonsense, so she could only tell the eldest grandmother to guard the courtyard gate and wait for the second shoe to land.

At this moment, seeing Zhang Bao and the fourth master walk in, Erfu finally understood the meaning of being overjoyed.

Zhao Dezhu pretended to be the fourth master, and as soon as he entered the door, he couldn't stop coughing, "I haven't used medicine for most of the day, hurry up and let someone send medicine in!"

Erfu sent the two second-class maids in the room in response, and explained to Yujing and the others to prepare water and prepare for washing, and then helped the fourth master to walk into the inner room.

As soon as he entered the inner room, Zhao Dezhu saw that the curtains by the window had been lowered, so he knelt on the ground with a puff, "The slave is fortunate not to be dishonored, but the things that were wrong before still need to be worried about by the master and Gonggong Zhang!"

"Thank you for your hard work, hurry up and change your clothes.

You haven't shown up for most of the day, and if you don't go back, Wang Shoucai is afraid that you will see that something is wrong!"

It's not that Erfu doesn't trust Wang Shoucai, it's really that this matter is too involved. The less people know, the safer.

As for the maids and mothers-in-law who hadn't seen the fourth master go out for a few days before, they still needed to be beaten by the eldest grandmother and Fu Mama, and they knew that there was today's scene. She should have asked Chen Fu to disguise Zhao Dezhu and pretend to be the fourth master in and out of the mansion.

It's just that there is no regret medicine in this world, and even if Erfu regrets it, she can only grit her teeth in her heart.

Zhao Dezhu hurriedly walked to the clean room with his eunuch robe, changed out of the fourth master's homely robe, and came back from a big circle in the mansion along the small corner door in the clean room, still holding the cherries brought back from Mama Fu from Fujin in the main courtyard.

Regarding Zhao Dezhu's whereabouts, Erfu had curry favor with the Ulanala clan before. The cherry trees on the left and right Zhuangzi have borne fruit, and it is time to use them, plus the people on the Zhuangzi are not familiar with the people in the house. So there's no way around it!

The Wulanala clan also wanted to gamble: she didn't believe that the fourth master was so hidden before, and she would not do anything to cover it up along the way, and the other party could really jump out and hold on to this matter and not let go.

After all, this incident accidentally broke out because the fourth master had ill intentions and coveted the throne, if he was grabbed by someone. With the mind of the fourth master. It's easy to make this a situation where you're being framed.

A small basket of cherries was washed and sent into the room, but Erf only left two plates, and let people take them and divide them.

"Master, it's time to drink the medicine!" After some disguise, the person in the bed curtain became the ventriloquist again, Erfu took the medicine bowl from Yujing's hand with a smile and said with a smile.

All that was left in the room were the reliable maids arranged by the fourth master in her yard, but at this moment, the fourth master who watched him go in became the entertainer. Yu Jing and the others were still stunned.

But their duty as slaves forced them to suppress the urge to scream. lowered his eyes, suppressed the complicated expression under his eyes, respectfully waited for the entertainer to eat the decoction for the treatment of wind and cold, and helped the entertainer to wash in the clean room, and it was also thanks to the fourth master that he was accustomed to doing it himself, which saved Yujing and others the embarrassment.

Sitting on the Luohan bed by the window again, Erfu slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air and muttered, "Master, when are you coming back!"

"Who is it that makes the little Nizi of the master worried!" Outside the window, a mocking voice sounded.

Erfu had a wave of thoughts in an instant, although two lines of tears had slipped from his eyes, but he still disguised his angry voice, and shouted coldly: "Who the hell is pretending to be a ghost, carefully our Lord Belle will send you to the Criminal Division!"

The hidden window was pushed open, and the familiar appearance of the fourth master appeared outside the window, facing the candlelight under the porch, which was as bright as day, and hooked his lips and smiled, "I'm worried about you!"

"Is it really you?" Erph asked softly, taking two steps back in disbelief.

"Of course!" the fourth master propped up the window lattice with both hands, and landed on Erfu's side as light as a swallow, raised his hand to brush Erfu's twice-thinned cheeks, and said with a smile.

Erfu once asked Chen Fu, although this disguise technique is magical, it can't change its own voice, so when Erfu only heard the voice before, he was still a little suspicious, but now he believed it, flew into the arms of the fourth master, hugged the waist of the fourth master and didn't let go.

After all, if there is really someone who can be the same size as the fourth master, and can have the voice of the fourth master, she would rather be deceived, she really misses the man who left suddenly.

Fortunately, there is no such coincidence in the world, and the person who came is the fourth master who left the house late at night.

The fourth master just let Erfu hug his waist and stood for a full two quarters of an hour, even Yujing and the others didn't change their posture when they heard the movement and broke in, they didn't even look at the comer, they just sucked the familiar smell of Erfu's body.

In the end, Erfu was blushing by the hot eyes of Yu Jing and others, so he bowed his head and left the arms of the fourth master, and pretended to sit calmly on the Luohan bed.

"Let Xiao Shengzi prepare some food and send it over!" The fourth master tore off his dusty robe and sat beside Erfu, and commanded in a deep voice.

"Yes, yes, Yujing, go to the back and let Xiaoshengzi light the fire!" Erfu looked back, happened to see the bruises under the eyes of the fourth master, and said busily.

Yu Jing and the others came out in response, until they bypassed the small kitchen in the backyard from the ear door, as if they still couldn't believe that the fourth master came back like this, but the remaining uneasiness in their hearts was dispersed with the wind.

Xiao Shengzi had already prepared dinner before, but no one had come to pick it up, and the atmosphere in front was a little weird, so he put the soups and stews that could withstand the heat on the stove and warmed them, and prepared a few fried ingredients by slicing and shredding, just waiting for the person in front to come and pick them up.

Therefore, although Yujing was in a hurry at this time, he was not in a hurry at all, and smiled and asked Yujing and others to put a few dishes and snacks in the drawer into the food box.

In a quarter of an hour, four meat and four vegetables, two soups, a cup of steamed japonica rice and a few new dim sum were served.

The fourth master also took advantage of the maid's time to set the table to go to the clean room to wash up, and changed into a clean home-style robe, looking breezy and calm, and he didn't look like he had just come back from a trip to Tongzhou.

After simply eating, Erfu lazily leaned on the arms of the fourth master, and talked about what had happened in the house these days, but he suppressed the worry in his heart, and did not dare to ask about the things in Tongzhou.

"I'm back with a gift for you!" The fourth master smiled and listened to Erfu talk about those trivial things, and kept pretending not to see the worry in Erfu's eyes, but mentioned another thing.

As he spoke, the fourth master had already walked to the side of the big bag he had brought back, and took out a red rectangular brocade box from inside.

"What is it?" Erph asked with a smile.

When the fourth master heard this, he casually opened the copper buckle that was buckled, revealing the twelve flower god hairpins with different shapes inside, a full twelve pairs of hairpins, none of which were similar, but they were equally beautiful and made people unable to take their eyes off.

"It's so pretty!" said Erf, with a look of obsession.

Under the candlelight, which was as bright as day, the gold silk crystal shimmered with a faint golden light, as if it had its own soft light effect, which caused the worried Erfu to forget the worries in her heart for a while.

The fourth master smiled and beckoned to Erfu, held a hairpin in one hand, gently pinned it between Erfu's hair, and adjusted the angle slightly, then took a bronze mirror placed by the window and held it up in front of Erfu's eyes.

The golden hairpin is not as dazzling as red gold, but because the edges and corners reflect the candlelight, it looks particularly charming, and the plain white face and long black and shiny hair of Delph are even more lovely.

"This time, I went over there and completely destroyed the dragon pillar that was enough to be handed down, but I brought back other things carved out by Mr. Lu with the rest of the materials, in addition to this complete set of twelve-flower hairpins, there is also a pair of foot-high golden silk crystal bonsai, which Dai Duo will bring over when he enters the mansion another day!" said the fourth master softly.

Immediately, the fourth master mentioned the rescued Mr. Lu and the reason why he had not returned for a long time, in short, Erfu completely let go of the uneasiness in his heart.

"Do you know who did it?" asked Erf, glaring at her eyes full of surprise.

Hearing this, the fourth master shook his head slightly, "I heard that the accent of the person is not like that of the people in Beijing, and the style of acting is full of rivers and lakes, it should be someone who paid them to come forward, as for whose money it is, I will not know until Fu Nai comes back!"

Leaving Beijing this time, the experience of the fourth master can be described as an escape from death, those people not only want to find Panlongzhu and let him be charged with coveting the throne, but also want to leave him outside, so that he can never come back, if it weren't for the ability of the guards around him, he may really not be able to come back!

Thinking of this, even if the fourth master is good-tempered, he can't help but be a little angry, not to mention that the fourth master is not a kind person.

But there is no need to say this, so as not to frighten Xiao Nizi, the fourth master thought. (To be continued......)
